"We regret to announce that the Atlantic Championship Series will not take place in 2013. It was in our every intention to expand from a three weekend to five weekend format based on the 2012 season. However, challenges, from lack of entry support to scheduling issues based on aquiring acceptable race dates of premiere road courses suitable for Atlantic race cars on realistic dates at realistic pricing prevented the creation of an adequate schedule. It is our intention to work during the coming months to establish a robust Atlantic Championship Series in 2014.
